Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

It is a good question, I had the same when I first heard about it.

I think lots of people keep both installed:

  • the default one is good for managing server related things
  • this one is good for daily use, especially for any other users you might have

What I liked:

  • feels much faster and smoother
  • UI is nice and clean
  • download manager works nicely, as another user mentioned. You don't need to open a separate app to play the files

That's exactly my usecase. I was on a travel and used the offline-mode. Really easy to stay on progress without network.
